Franco confronts Hayden,
in front of Finn, accusing her of wanting Elizabeth dead; he tells Finn that
Liz has something on Hayden that could put her in jail for a very long
time. Hayden fills Finn in on the
history between her and Liz and he realizes the she would be better off if
Elizabeth died. He mentions this; she is offended that he would think she could have something to
do with hurting Elizabeth. She says she's pissed to think that he could think such a thing; he asks what else he is
supposed to think right now. Griffin finds a full syringe in the garbage can of the locker room; he tells Monica. She sends the syringe to the lab to find out what is in it.
Alexis
sits at the bar, Julian walks up behind her… she is terrified and fumbles with
her phone as she backs away from him; he continues to tell her how much he
loves her and that they will be together again. Then, suddenly, it is Tracy who is standing there, not Julian;
Alexis tells Tracy that she has been having ‘waking dreams’ of Julian haunting
her. Tracy assures her it will get
better, but says testifying against Julian is the first step. She walks away to take a phone call and
Julian whispers in Alexis’ ear that she won’t be able to testify against
him. She shivers. She stands up and yells at him; Tracy gets
her attention and tells her she needs to go home and get herself together, so
she can show up in court at take Julian down.
Griffin talks to Franco in the hallway; he seems to believe that Franco
is sincere about his feelings for Elizabeth.
Jordan comes to see Elizabeth; Monica tells her she is now a patient;
she fills Jordan in on the details. Ava
calls a meeting with Paul; she tells him about her meeting with Jordan and how
she recognized the cufflink. She also
tells him that she spent some time in his hotel room last night; he stutters. She tells him the cufflinks were nowhere to
be found, but shows him the medicine case she did find. She tells him he is finished if she turns it
in; he asks what she wants. She tells
him, first, that he remains silent about her shooting Connie, not bothering to
ask for the tape back because he’s likely made copies; she tells him that she
wants him to set her brother free.
As
Franco sits, talking to her, Liz wakes up; Franco tells her how scared he was
when he found her lying there. She
remembers a little bit, but seems fuzzy about the details; she remembers trying
to get her phone out to use as a flashlight.
She remembers feeling someone push her back; then recalls that she was
going home to get the diamonds to turn into the police – and had just told
Hayden so. Franco tells her that when
he found her, Hayden was standing over her.
As
Jordan questions Hayden about why she was in the stairwell, and where she was
just before the power failure, Finn speaks out and says she was with him; they
were talking. Jordan tells him she will
be in contact; when she leaves Hayden asks why he didn’t tell her what he knows
about her and Elizabeth. He tells her
that he doesn’t believe she did this; she smiles. Elizabeth starts freaking out, kind of; Jordan, standing just
outside of her room, overhears her saying that Hayden tried to kill her.

When another patient dies,
as Andre is counseling them, the hospital is put back on high alert; Andre is
momentarily a suspect. Maxie is so
upset over Nathan getting stranded with Claudette, and his inability to be able
to tell her that he has absolutely no feelings for Claudette and his reaction
to seeing Griffin and Claudette kissing, she has moved back in with Felicia and
Mac; as she pulls all of her pictures off of her ‘dream board’, getting ready
to burn them, Felicia tells her to stop.
She tells her mom she cannot get over the way Nathan went after Griffin;
it was obvious that he is still in love with her. Felicia tells her she has a hold on Nathan; when Maxie replies,
“so does Claudette,” Felicia says, “then break it.” Nathan talks to his sister; she tells him, she understands how Maxie
feels, even though he didn’t “do the act.”
She tells him he has do something to convince Maxie that he is through
with Claudette for good; he goes to meet Maxie, and brings his old wedding
ring, making the grand gesture of throwing it out the door into the
darkness. It works; Maxie tells him
that white gold ring didn’t suit him anyways; he needs a ‘titanium’ one. The wedding is back on.
Ava remembers being in bed with Paul as he put his shirt back on; she made note of the cufflinks. The scene flashes back to the stairwell; as the hospital lights go out, for unknown reasons, Liz drops her keys, bends down to pick them up, and Paul shoves her down the staircase. As Hayden tries to leave the hospital, finding the elevator out of order, and taking the staircase, she happens upon Elizabeth. She just stands there, looking down at her; Franco comes looking for Elizabeth. Hayden calls out to him, still just standing on the stairs. Liz wakes up for a few seconds and then passes out again; Franco tells Hayden to go get help. She runs into Paul in the hallway; he pretends to be surprised to hear that Liz is hurt. Hayden gets back to Monica and Finn, who just found out why the power went out (the box has been tampered with; wires pulled out), and tells them Elizabeth is hurt and needs help. Monica can’t find Monroe; she calls for an emergency response team.
Claudette catches Griffin in the locker room, coming out of the shower; she holds his underwear hostage to tease him. She tells him they have to talk about the way he kissed her; she says it proved that she isn’t far from his thoughts… that he still loves her. He tells her when he looks at her, all he feels is the bullet tearing through his flesh and the scar it left behind. As Elizabeth is tended to by the doctors, Paul tells Hayden he needs to talk to her; meanwhile Ava is searching through his room, looking for the cufflink. She finds a small medicine bag behind the nightstand; it has syringes and vials of Derisifol inside of it. As Maxie and Nina talk in front of Perks, they each get a text message giving them the good news; they hug, saying they are going to be related. As Monica looks for another member of the staff, Paul stalks her from behind, with a syringe in hand.

Lulu is on a desperate
mission to find out if her embryo might have survived the explosion at
Criton-Clarke, but she is making her first inquiries without Dante’s knowledge. When Robert stops by their house to tell
Lulu that her father is alive and well, she asks him to look into whether or
not there was a possibility that one embryo was recovered – it is her last
chance to have a child that is biologically hers, she says. Dante does not look all too happy about the
fact that she is asking. (Wouldn’t this
be biologically Starvros’ child too? He
is the one who created it, using her egg…and his sperm, I would assume. So I don’t understand why she would even
want it.) They have made no mention of
the fact that this child would not be Dante’s biological child; still, Dante
tells her, whatever she wants to do, he will support her.
As Franco talks with his mother, he gets her to confess her secret to him… after an awkward game of hypothetical questions and ‘it’s possible/ it’s not possible’ answers, Heather reveals that Elizabeth’s father was having an affair with Naomi Berlin (Hayden’s mother) and got her pregnant some time just before Elizabeth was born. Hayden and Elizabeth are sisters; Franco gets up, saying he has to go tell Elizabeth, but Heather tells him he absolutely cannot. Hayden goes to confront Elizabeth about the diamonds; she even slaps Elizabeth across the face! Liz faces her with courage, and ultimately tells her she is going to turn them into the police. Hayden tells Finn that he should stay out of her business, when he questions what was going on between her and Elizabeth, reminding him that he was the one who said they were no longer friends. He apologizes; tells her that he was out of line…angry and he shouldn’t have taken it out on her. She looks confused.
Jordan calls Ava, to get her expert advice about the antique coin-cufflink, which could potentially lead them to the killer. As she and Ava study the photo, they both say that they feel as if they have seen it on someone close to them before; Elizabeth goes to talk to Monica.
Oh, wow… Paul is the killer; he is standing in Monica’s office, alone, when Elizabeth walks in, and he is holding a syringe. He panics after she excuses herself, and goes after her; finding her on the stairs, he pushes her from behind. She falls down at least a dozen steps and is bleeding, as she lays on the landing now. He exits the scene.

Sonny demands that Alexis
tell him what is going on, since this picture of her grabbing his daughter is
plastered all over the internet. She
assures him it was nothing – one incident that was taken out of context; Sonny
asks what she’s going to do to make it right.
Kevin tries to call, but Laura does not answer; Robert shows up at her
door. Alexis goes to visit Julian; he
tells her he doesn’t have much hope because D.A. Hornsby and that man is hungry
to be Port Charles’ number one crime fighter. Ava tells him he needs to toughen
up and fight this, or give it up and make Sonny’s day. Paul is having lunch with Tracy, and
attempting to talk to Dillon, but Dillon wants nothing more to do with him and
tells him they can reschedule this family meeting for a more convenient time,
like may never. Although Paul will not
apologize for his ambition, he tells Dillon that he loves him and will do
whatever is necessary for him (but then he gets a text from Ava, and says he
has to go).
Robert tells Laura that he got a call from Luke about ten hours ago…he says Luke was concerned because he had intercepted some information about what happened on Cassadine Island. Laura asks why he came all this way to deliver this message; he tells her Luke also sends a warning. He tells her Luke is worried about Valentene. Even though he is on his way to prison in Greece, supposedly, Luke fears Laura and Spencer may still be in danger and wants her to increase security. Franco brings Elizabeth some toast, with jelly (in a smiley face); “brain food” he calls it, because he knows she’s had a lot on her mind. Naomi (Hayden’s mom) goes to see Heather; she says she doesn’t appreciate being black-mailed… Heather says she doesn’t care. Naomi begs her to give her more time, but Heather remains hardened; she tells Naomi she better pay up, or else. Franco, now standing behind Heather, asks, “or else what?” Naomi excuses herself and Franco sits down. As Franco and his mother talk, Heather admits to him that she knows something about Naomi and her little brat; Naomi has been paying her for years to keep silent, but recently stopped the payments. Franco offers to be her personal ATM, but he wants details.
Alexis explains the situation to Sonny, tells him to be there for their daughter because obviously she is frozen out; she says she is fully prepared to testify against Julian, adding that the man is deranged thinking he can get her back (Sonny laughs and says he knows what he needs to do now and tells Alexis to keep her eye on the prize and be on her game so that can bring Julian down). Sonny goes to see Julian and tells him to spare Alexis the humiliation of testifying about him trying to kill her, and Sonny will offer his protection while he’s in prison. Robert stops Paul on his way to talk to Ava and asks how the case against Julian is going – Hayden asks Laura to tell Spencer goodbye for her because she is not good at goodbyes.
Paul meets with Ava; she tells him that she thinks she can convince her brother to plead guilty in exchange for consideration at sentencing. He tells her he will not make a deal with Julian, but he will make a deal with her – tells her he wants her to bury him, with the truth that he ordered the hit on Lavery and murdered Carlos Rivera…or he files another case, against her, for murdering Connie (he still has the flashdrive). Kristina admits to her mother that she was right, and says she is totally lost; Alexis says that she is totally lost right now, too, except that she knows she has a wonderful daughter. Kevin comes to see Laura; she has her bags packed. Ava runs into Hayden at the bar; she tells Hayden that Elizabeth has her diamonds.

08-25-2016 (Thursday)
Kevin and Laura wake up in
bed; he asks if she has any regrets.
She says of course not, and kisses him; they get up and get dressed; he
says he’s going down to get coffee and then they can decide where to go to
breakfast – or if they should just go back to bed. When he leaves, Laura accidentally knocks a file off the desk;
she picks it up and sees a letter from a publisher, and a manuscript.
Jordan talks to Alexis… not happy about the story that has been published online by the gossip site, TMI. She tells Alexis this could harm the case against Julian; after Alexis leaves, Andre shows up and Jordan confesses to him that she used to work undercover with the DEA and she has a vendetta against Julian Jerome for consuming half her life. Andre doesn’t look certain how to process all that. Sonny and Carly are having breakfast with Sam and Jason. Jason tells them about the upcoming wedding; Carly offers to host it at her house and help put everything together – she promises to keep it small, and simple, as they wish for it to be. They accept her offer.
Jason asks Sonny to be his best man; Sam goes to her mother's and asks Alexis to be her “best girl” (matron of honor). Kristina goes to see Parker; she finds her along her usual jogging path on the campus. Parker is surprised to see her and denies having tried to call; looks at her phone and says she must have accidentally pocket-dialed her. She apologizes. Kristina begins to leave, and Parker tells her she wants to talk to her anyway; they sit down. Parker tells her she has been thinking of her, and that she is still attracted to her; Kristina thinks this means they still have a chance and reaches out to her. Parker pushes her away and tells her she doesn’t understand; she apologizes for how she broke up with Kristina but says it was still for the best – she tells Kristina that she is going back to her wife. Kristina gets angry, saying she lied to her, used her to have a fling and return to a marriage she never intended to leave; tells Parker she never wants to see her again.
Kevin comes back to the motel room with the coffee to find Laura sitting at the desk, reading his manuscript; she confronts him, asking why this is a story about her (a woman looking for her long-lost husband, following clues, from a dead woman). He explains, it started out as a non-fiction book about old cases he’d worked on…got the publishing deal in early 2015; been stalled for over a year, when she inspired him. But instead of being flattered (being an inspiration), Laura becomes angry, assumes he wasn’t even going to tell her, dismisses the entire night together as some ploy of his and tells him goodbye, leaving in a huff.
Nelle comes to pick up Avery to babysit for the day and gets a phone call from her supervisor, telling her that the clinic is being shut down; she is losing her job. Sonny comes to see Alexis.
